With Halloween coming up, thought I'd start a thread where everyone talks about their favourite horror movies and If theres one that you'll watch this year for Halloween?
Mine are-
John Carpenters the Thing
Alien
Shaun of the dead (ok i cheated on that one thats a comedy)
Re-animator
Hellraiser
The Texas Chainsaw massacre
The Shinning
and The fly (Jeff Goldblum version)
The Thing and Re animator are my top two picks so I might watch them on the day
the thing
evil dead 1 & 2 (not counting 3 because it's not really a horror)
jeepers creepers 1 & 2
nightmare on elm street 1 & 2
the Friday the 13 movies before part 7

Part 7 had the best Jason, and you can't just ignore Jason Takes Manhatten, step up your list

he did look badass in that movie. I just hate the stupid telekinesis subplot. Manhattan was pretty cool but they should have just stopped at part 6
Anything with Freddy Krueger and Jason Vorhees.
As well as the Child's Play series.
I don't watch a lot of movies, so it's pretty typical stuff. A lot of my favourite horror films are silent though so maybe it'll be a fresh list to those that aren't normally into that sort of thing. So yeah top 10 or whatever I guess.
Frankenstein (1910)
Genuine (1920)
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920)
The Phantom Carriage (1921)
Nosferatu (1922)
Haxan (1922)
The Mummy (1932)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
Dawn of the Dead (1978)
The Shining (1980)
Child's Play is definitely a favorite of mine. No other horror movie even approaches the entertainment value.

Yeah 7 was silly plotwise, it was basically FireStarter but with jason. I would have probably enjoyed it more if it didn't have the whole supernatural abilities.

same here. part 9 was the worst of them all (jasonx doesn't deserve to be counted in the franchise). the only thing good about that piece of crap was Jason's design which would have peen perfect if he had the chain around his neck

Jason x is actually a really good documentary on how to not make a horror movie
Night At The Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian
You look nice today.
This guy brutally sodomizes me.
Cereal is pretty cool. If you're cool you'll add me on Steam. Also, Letterboxd.
The only horror movie I've seen is A Nightmare on Elm Street 4

to me the sequels and the remake never happened and that the original cheesy film is the only one to watch
- The Rocky Horror Picture Show
- Women in Cages
- A Clockwork Orange
- The Shining
Honestly, there's so many great horror films out there, I'm not sure if I'd be able to pick a favorite.
--The Worst Foe Lies Within the Self--
A lot of people will disagree with me on this as a lot of people just see is as torture porn gone to the extreme, which in some ways is true but i feel that it's a lot more important than that and has a much higher artistic value than your average torture shit you normally find. It's extremely well made even if it is extremely disturbing at points. A Serbian Film.
My fav film of all time is A Clockwork Orange coz it's the first movie where I realised I wanted to be a filmmaker but I'd definitely include A Serbian Film up there with my favourite horrors. Ichi The Killer is also a close second for my fav film of all time lol. Takashi Miike is just a complete fucking nutjob. I love him lmao
The Underworld franchise is a good one.
But if you're going to watch just 1 horror movie on Halloween, go with the Evil Dead remake, since it's more serious and darker then the original.
10 favorites in no order.
La Noche de Walpurgis
The Devil Rides Out
Nightmare On Elm Street
The Evil Dead 1
The Evil Dead 2
Army Of Darkness
Night Of The Living Dead
Creep Show (dunno if that counts since it's a movie made up of short movie...things)
Hellraiser
Halloween

Is that even considered a "horror movie"? I have like 4 copies of it (don't ask....) and never really considered it part of that genre.
chainsaw massacre
The Evil Dead 2 is my guilty pleasure.
oh and:
Day of the Dead
Friday The 13th: Part 3
The Toxic Avenger (is that considered a horror movie?)
The Thing (The John Carpenter one)
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (The Original one)
Dawn of the dead
and last but not least: Tetsuo: The Iron Man.
I suck at drawing and I hate the fuckin' Eagles.

the thing

So, why do you have 4 copies of it?

Because I love that movie. I've seen it more than I've seen any other movie I've ever watched ever.
Halloween (1978)
Scream
The Cabinet of Dr Caligari
Frankenstein
That's just the ones that pop into my head.

It is such a colorful and brilliant movie. Has a charm to it.
The musical numbers are pretty good, too.
I can't watch horror movies because I'm a pussy
